Deputies and detectives hit the streets of South Brooksville on Monday in hopes of stirring up new leads in the Jesse Johnson case.
Johnson was 78 years old when his house at 904 Josephine St. was set on fire Jan. 26, 1998. He managed to escape the fire with severe burns, but died days later from complications from his injuries.
Eleven years later, detectives are hitting the streets again to talk with folks who might know something about the case. Anyone with information is asked to call Hernando County Crime Stoppers at 1-866-990-TIPS (8477).
